I perfectly disagree with the statement. First of all, if everyone were totally equal, there should not word like 'ability and responsibility.' Like school, if all students are smart and all students are not smart, we might not have educations and teachers. Second, if all students are smart,they don't need to go to school at all, a country will ruined and finally, there is nothing left. So i think, life in Vietnam would not be perfect if everyone were totally equal.
You are designing a society in which everyone is equal. What are the laws?
-Equal school fees for everyone
-Equal jobs for all everyone
-Equal salary for everyone
-Equal foods amount for everyone
-Equal rules for everyone
What would you do to help people who were less capable mentally,physically,or socially to "catch up"?
I will give them some plenty of money to make playgrouds for poor children and foods and clothes for them to wear.
What problems can you foresee that might come in a society with laws that force “equality for all”? How would you handle those problems?
First of all, i actually don't like people to be in same level or quality and ability. You know,each people have their own ability and talents but if they are all in a same group, people cannot compare and will not know who is better and also cannot develop the country.
Do you believe that total equality is possible, or would human nature make sure that some people would eventually dominate others?
I don't believe that total equality is possible and human would never dominate other people but if they try,they can,but not in nature. Each people have their own ability and talent. Anybody cannot dominate his or hers,but in artificially.
In what situations have you felt similarly to any of the characters? What persons, places, or ideas from your own experience came to mind while you were reading this story? Try to list as least two examples.
While i am reading this book, i felt that i am just like Harrison. In any places, i always think i am crowded and proud, but quickly i knew that this behavior is not good same as Harrison. In the story, he said "i am the emperor."with loud and crowded,just like me. Harrison went to the studio and showed everyone that he is the genius boy. While i was reading this section, i soon remembered my experience.
I was in korea and everyone didn't know my face clearly,but i quickly showed them and they were very surprised and i didn't know what to say. They apolosized all day because i was their best friends!!!
